Hello,
I have been taking overal l since 13th may to delay my periods which is due on the 1st as I am going on vacation. My period cycle is 25 days. I was told I could take 21 tablets so I will not have my regular periods and once stopped will get my cycle going. But I got some bleeding and spotting yesterday i.e after taking 10 tablets. Should I continue or stop?
